“Costlier editions are on sale, but none produced with more taste than this one.”—Dispatch.
“A real service has been rendered for those who want a thoroughly readable copy of ‘The Pilgrim’s Progress.’”—Literary World.
“The whole book is reproduced in excellent fashion.”—Scotsman.
“This edition has exceptional claims upon public favour. The late poet laureate’s biography is in his best manner, while Harvey’s effective woodcuts are in themselves a feature of very considerable interest to lovers of British art. In the matter of typography and general get-up the reprint is in every respect superior to the original edition, and the low price at which the book is published should tempt many to obtain a copy. The binding and decorations are very effective, and the volume is fitted to grace any drawing-room table.”—Oxford Times.
